Learning to Love My Makeup-Less Face
Anybody who knows me knows how vehemently proud I am to have a makeup artist as a mom. As a journalist, it’s a consistently revisited theme in my writing. As a babbler, it’s a primary topic of conversation. It’s a piece of my mom’s identity that’s seeped into my own, one that I’ve always flaunted like a badge of Maybelline honor: “Yeah, MY mom makes humans BEAUTIFUL for a living.”

Makeup Routine for Tomboys
I started wearing makeup when I was 21 years old. As a woman I KNOW that is a very late start. I was never the one to gloss over my face, or blend, or compact something in my face. I actually had "bad skin" as a young person, so naturally I started using acne products. I had buckets of acne cremes, toners, moisturizers, and masks. I had tried everything on my face to clear my skin, so I did not even want to add anything else! I was also a tomboy. I never liked to be super feminine, and I just knew that was who I was. I am, and was, sort of a shell of a woman, but on the inside I really was just searching for peace, and self love. I realize now that makeup enhances, and is a form of self love. All women including tomboys can invest in themselves in this way!! Here is my routine!
